Parents, painting, football & more

Hello!

This weekend has been a good one so far, however just way too fast. (What’s new though?)

I started my Saturday morning with some last minute picking up the house and some cookie making before my parents got here from NE.

Though not a great picture, these cookies are always so good! I got the recipe from 101  Cookbooks. The coconut banana flavor goes so well together and they’re very “clean” with the base of them being bananas, coconut oil and oats.

Shortly after pulling them out of the oven, my parents arrived bearing gifts.

And that’s just some of what they brought. (All from my mom’s garden). Yum!!! I was impressed that my mom had grapes. They are SO sweet. My favorites so far are the purple ones.

We spent much of the day listening to the Husker game and painting. (Though my mom was the one who was most intent on listening to the game, you can’t grow up in NE without being a Husker football fan, it’s just not right).

 

My dad is pretty much the best painter ever and he was kind enough to help me get some painting done in the house.  (He’s also going to paint me a picture for our house sometime soon and I’m excited for that. How many people get to have awesome artwork from their dad hanging up in their house… )

I’m beginning my morning with some banana peanut butter oats. (That’s a very hard combo to beat!)

Plus some plain old iced tea.

For today … late service at church, lunch, seeing my parents off, then who knows what!

Hope you’re all having a fabulous weekend!!! What did you do on Saturday? (Anyone else a Husker fan??)
